Hi! My name is Cindy and I love being a lactation consultant! Whether your goal is to exclusively breast-feed, provide pump breast milk or partially breast-feed, I will work with you to achieve that goal. I have been a registered nurse for 35 years and achieved my IBCLC certification 20 years ago. My nursing career has been in a hospital setting consulting mother baby couplets and also mothers in the NICU who are exclusively pumping and have different needs. It is so rewarding to watch these moms work so hard proving human milk and then transition to being able to breastfeed their preemie!
I feel that each breastfeeding couple is unique with their own challenges and goals. Sometimes breastfeeding comes easily and sometimes it’s very hard so it’s important to remember that being a parent is not all about how you feed your baby. It should be an enjoyable and amazing experience! I truly feel it is a privilege to encourage and support these moms during such an important time in their life!
